Peer Supporter Resource Library

Uploading, sharing, and managing your support materials

The resource library is your personal storage space on HeyPeers where you can keep important materials such as documents, images, reference guides, and more. It’s designed to help you organize your resources efficiently while maintaining control over visibility and access.


You can choose to make each file:
  • Public – visible on your Peer Supporter profile page
  • Private – accessible only during meetings you host

This flexibility allows you to prepare and share support materials in a way that best fits your facilitation style and the needs of your members.

To access your resource library, log into HeyPeers and navigate to the top menu bar. Click on your profile photo or initials circle in the upper right corner. From the drop-down menu, select Peer Supporter Dashboard.
Your Peer Supporter Dashboard will be displayed. Locate the Resource Library link.

The Resource Library page opens.

The Resource Library page displays all of the files you’ve uploaded, along with tools to help you organize, update, and control access to your materials. At the top of the page, you’ll find:
  • Search bar – allows you to quickly find a file by name or description
  • Filters – All, Public, and Private, so you can narrow your view
  • Add New Document button – used to upload new files
Below these controls is a table listing all of your documents and files.

Understanding the Resource Library Columns

Name
The title of the file as it appears in your library. By default, this is the original file name and extension, but you can rename it to better reflect the content or purpose of the document.

Description (optional)
A short summary you provide when uploading the file. This helps you remember the purpose or context of each resource.

Link
A download link that allows you to open or save the file. 

Last Updated
The Last Updated timestamp reflects the most recent update to the file record, not the file itself. This timestamp is updated whenever changes are made to the record, such as a name or description change or file replacement. It does not indicate when the file content was last modified.

Public
A toggle that controls visibility:
  • On – the file appears on your Peer Supporter profile page
  • Off – the file is private and only accessible during meetings you host

Actions (Edit / Delete)
  • Edit – update the file name, description, or replace the file
  • Delete – permanently remove the file from your library

Adding a New Document

To upload a new file to your Resource Library, click the Add New Document button at the top right of the page.

A file‑upload window appears allowing you to find and select your file. Click on the upload icon in the center.

Acceptable file types: .pdf, .doc, .xls, .csv, .jpeg, .jpg, .png

After choosing your file, you’ll be prompted to enter:
  • Document Name – the title that will appear in your Resource Library
  • Description – an optional short summary to help you remember the purpose or context of the file

Click Upload Document to save your file.

Editing an Existing Document

To update a file in your Resource Library, locate the document you want to modify and click Edit in the Actions column.

The Edit Document window will open. This form has two parts: the top section for updating the file record, and the bottom section for replacing the file itself
1. Update the document name and description
The top half of the form allows you to edit the information stored in the file record:
  • Document Name – By default, this field displays the original file name with its extension (example: meeting_note.pdf) You can rename it to something more descriptive or user‑friendly.
  • Description – Add or update a short summary that helps you remember the purpose or context of the file.
These fields update the record, not the file content.
2. Replace the current file (optional)
  • The bottom half of the form allows you to upload a replacement file. Click the upload icon to browse your computer.
  • Acceptable file types: .pdf, .doc, .xls, .csv, .jpeg, .jpg, .png
  • Replacing the file updates the stored document but does not automatically change the name or description.
Important Note
The Document Name and Description fields are separate from the Replace File section.  If you update the name or description, click Update Document to save those changes before replacing the file.

Once you finish your edits, click Update Document to save all changes.

Deleting an Existing Document

To remove a file from your Resource Library, find the document you want to delete and click Delete in the Actions column.
You’ll be asked to confirm the deletion.

Once confirmed, the file is permanently removed from your library and cannot be recovered.

The Resource Library gives you a simple, organized way to manage the materials you rely on in your work with members. Whether you’re uploading new documents, updating existing files, or removing items you no longer need, the tools on this page help you keep your resources clear, current, and easy to access. As your support materials evolve, your library can evolve with you.
